Cabot Guns is a leading manufacturer of some of the finest 1911's ever produced. The quality of these pistols is unmatched with aerospace tolerance fit to 1 one thousandth of an inch! The 2012 NRA National Pistol Championship was won by Brian "Gunny" Zins with a Cabot pistol in the very first year Cabot Gun debuted at the competition!

Nexus has proudly been chosen as one of the select limited number of dealers of these works of art and we have been fortunate to obtain the very last Jones 1911 produced this year (no more will be produced until next year). This is Cabot's flagship gun and is a showcase of craftsmanship, precision design, and machining.

At Nexus Shooting, customer care does not end with the sales transaction. As such, Nexus Shooting is offering FREE inspections of any M&P Shields, whether it was purchased from us or not, to all of our customers by our certified in house gunsmith. Stop by anytime during gunsmith hours: Wednesday-Saturday 1pm-9pm and Sundays 1pm-8pm.

Below is a description from Smith & Wesson of the issue.

"Smith & Wesson has identified a condition where the trigger bar pin could damage the lower trigger in certain M&P Shields in a way that may affect the functionality of the drop safety feature of the firearm, potentially allowing the pistol to discharge if it is dropped.

Any unintended discharge of a firearm has the potential to cause injury, and we ask that you STOP USING YOUR PISTOL IMMEDIATELY UNTIL IT HAS BEEN INSPECTED AND, IF THE CONDITION IS FOUND, REPAIRED."

Come enjoy your last week of summer before heading back to school. Starting Sunday Aug 11th, minors 10-17 years old shoot for free with no range use fee.

As such, they must share the same lane.

Also, don't forget about Gabby Franco's youth shooting class scheduled for tomorrow! Gabby Franco started shooting as a little 11 year old girl. That early experience sparked her interest in shooting and has enabled her to achieve some of the highest accolades as a professional shooter. She has received multiple Silver and Gold Medals in international competitions such as the South American Games, Pan American Games, and Bolivarian Games. She has even competed at the highest levels in the Olympics and World Cup as well. Gabby was the strongest female competitor ever on History Channel's Top Shot reality television program and was invited back to be a contestant on Top Shot's All Stars season as well. Reaching out to youth and passing on her experiences as a young shooter to the next generation is a strong passion for Gabby. Having taught many kids to date and participating in NRA youth programs, she has a unique combination of a nurturing and caring personality, experience with kids, and the knowledge, drive, and wisdom of a competing professional shooter. The class lasts approximately two hours and starts with a classroom session emphasizing safety, then progresses to proper shooting technique utilizing dry fire and foam pellet guns, and finally onto the range for live fire with a .22 rifle. A parent is required to be present at all times during the class as well as the range session. The fee is $89 and includes the range use fee, eye/ear protection, targets, firearm rental, and ammunition. Come and have your child trained by one of the best in the world!

WELCOME TO THE FUTURE OF SHOOTING! We are proud to announce that we are now open for business. Starting Monday, May 13th, our normal hours will be 10am-10pm, 7 days a week. We are located at 2600 Davie Rd, Davie, FL 33314. Just a minute south of I-595 on Davie Rd.

Come experience what you've been missing with the cleanest, safest, quietest, friendliest, and most technologically advanced indoor shooting range on the planet! From our million-dollar, military-grade, fully air conditioned ventilation system, to our innovative use of the latest technologies, proprietary live fire computerized targeting, and spacious, modern showroom, no expense was spared!

We are fully stocked with thousands of firearms, rows and rows of black rifles and magazines, and ammunition in all major calibers. YES, we even have 9mm, 5.56, .223, and .22LR!

Our professional staff is friendly, approachable, attitude-free, and ready and willing to assist you in any way possible.

Sunday, April 21, 2013

Believe it or not, besides all of the innovative safety features that we've implemented and discussed thus far, there is still more to come. Here is yet another example.

At a standard range, the picture below is pretty much what you can expect. Hot spent brass casings are strewn all over the floor around your feet, creating not just an unsightly mess, but also a potential slip hazard! If you've ever stepped on these brass casings, you know that it feels like being on a ball bearings or roller skates. Holding a loaded firearm while slipping on these casings is a recipe for disaster! Range safety officers usually spend their time sweeping up these brass casings to help reduce this risk, but doing so actually decreases safety even further because they are distracted while sweeping and are watching the floor instead of doing their job and watching the firing line!

At Nexus Shooting, we have solved this problem by using specially designed custom fiberglass grates which allow the brass casings to fall harmlessly into collection troughs beneath your feet. This not only maintains a clean and tidy floor but also provides a textured surface to reduce slipping. An added benefit is a slight "give" to the flooring which provides an anti-fatigue effect (similar to rubber mats) allowing you to shoot for hours on end comfortably.

Our Range Safety Officers can now perform their intended function and provide 100% of their attention to carefully monitoring the firing line to help ensure your safety rather than being distracted with sweeping up brass. For those of you who wish to keep your brass, we welcome you to do so and have trays designed to cover up your individual lane that will accumulate your own spent brass for you to take home.

On a related note, every single one of our Range Safety Officers has completed the official National Rifle Association (NRA) Range Safety Officer course! When it comes to your safety, no detail is overlooked at Nexus!

Here are some of the latest construction pics demonstrating the real life implementation of some of the safety features at Nexus finally being installed. Are we going a bit overboard with safety? Most other ranges would say yes, but we don't think so! Safety is our highest concern and a major priority at Nexus Shooting! The next time you shoot at another range that makes similar claims, ask which of these safety measures they have in place.

The purple drywall is a specially designed multilayered acoustic drywall that protects the hearing of customers in the retail and classroom areas.

These are the safety walls being built on one of our handgun ranges. Ballistic steel lines ALL of the walls on this range for 360 degree protection!

Diagramatic representation of the specially designed multi-layer safety walls including protection against both hearing damage as well as injury from inadvertent discharges

Here is the real life implementation of the multi-layer safety wall one one of the rifle ranges. These are the layers that will protect you from high velocity rounds in the neighboring rifle bay.

Rendering of the isolated private shooting bays that will increase everyone's safety! Bays range in size from 10 feet wide all the way to 50 feet wide to accommodate various sized groups.

Wouldn't you like shooting in one of our private bays? You can enjoy your time safely on your own, with your kids and family, or with a group of friends!

Some of you may have noticed that the countdown timer on our website has been rolled back.

We are working continuously seven days a week to bring you one of the greatest shooting ranges in the United States. We appreciate everyone's continued patience, enthusiasm, and support. Thank you.
